Love those BBS wheels Meister  :cool: almost as much as your cordylines.

How on Earth do you get 50+ mpg out of a GTI, Rudedog? That takes some doing! :afro:

Love the alloys too :cool:, but then I’m a sucker for a nice set of alloys - provided they’re not diamond cut :whistle:.

Car looks great @Meister. I need to give mine ‘the works’ this week, weather permitting.

Finally, long overdue wash. Need to polish and blitz exhausts, but run out of energy today!

Looks great
 
Grab a set of £9 polishing cones off ebay for the drill and a bit of autosol, makes light work of it.

(Also a bit of scrunched up tin foil will remove the worst of it  :wink:)

Bet's it covered in Sahara Dust now if anything like mine, why do dark colours get dirty so fast. :grin:
